You know what’s more dangerous than an undocumented immigrant in America?

A Christian nationalist Nazi with a messiah complex in charge of the U.S. military.

This is Journalist Michael Tracey. He is the "man" who is behind the attempts to reveal the identity of the Cornell 7 Jane Doe

I think we teach him a lesson about WHY people value privacy and anonymity. He currently lives in New Jersey

It’s worse than bubonic plague.
It’s pneumonic plague, which is way more contagious.

Given russia's long history of covering up and minimizing institutional disasters, the world doesn’t have the luxury of turning a blind eye.
It is time to confine russia and treat the aggressors not just as terrorists, but as a direct health threat to humanity. Complete isolation is the only option.

Plague outbreak in Siberia: what is known so far

After the laboratory technician’s death, nearly 200 people who may have had contact with the woman were hospitalized. Some of them developed symptoms.

According to the publication “Lyudi Baikala,” ambulances are being accompanied by FSB officers.

The Shelekhov hospital was closed for quarantine. People in protective suits, masks, and gloves were spotted on the city’s streets.

The epidemic could spread across Russia. Due to one person’s banal mistake, there is a risk of a new major plague pandemic.

[Dr Richard Hirschson @richardhirschs1]

Pneumonic Plague cannot become a global pandemic , it is far too lethal, person-to-person spread is inefficient, it is airborne in droplets but not aerosolised.
Distant spread is very unlikely.
We have good prophylactic antibiotics.

🚨Breaking. There's been a pneumonic plague outbreak at a BSL-3 lab in Siberia, Russia.🚨

This is fact, and also the inciting incident in my book BIOLOGICAL WAR: A SCENARIO, which is unnerving.

Will post more as I learn more, including from Russian speaking sources🧵

Department of War emblem looks inspired directly by the Nazi version.

They even removed the olive branch.

Decide for yourself, but I’m personally sick of this shit. They’re defiling our nation.

Never forget...

What started as a traffic stop over a turn signal ended with a 28-year-old woman dead in a Texas jail cell. So what happened to Sandra Bland?

On July 10, 2015, Sandra Bland was pulled over near Prairie View A&M University by Texas Department of Public Safety Trooper Brian Encinia for failing to properly signal a lane change.

The encounter quickly became heated.

Dashcam footage showed Encinia ordering Bland out of her vehicle, reaching into the car and threatening to use a Taser when she refused to get out immediately.

Bland was eventually arrested and taken to Waller County Jail on a charge of assaulting a public servant.

Three days later, on July 13, Bland was found dead in her jail cell.

The medical examiner ruled her death a suicide, although the circumstances surrounding her death immediately prompted questions about jail procedures and whether she had been properly monitored.

Then investigators examined Encinia's arrest report.

In the report, he claimed that he had asked Bland to exit the vehicle so he could continue a safe traffic investigation.

But the dashboard-camera footage showed a much more confrontational encounter.

In January 2016, a grand jury indicted Encinia on a perjury charge, concluding that his written account conflicted with what the video showed.

The Texas Department of Public Safety then began the process of firing him.

Encinia eventually agreed to surrender his law-enforcement license and never work in law enforcement again. The perjury charge was later dismissed at the prosecution's request.

But what about Bland's death?

A Waller County grand jury considered whether anyone should face criminal charges over her death.

In December 2015, it declined to indict anyone in connection with her death.

Bland's family later filed a wrongful-death lawsuit. In 2016, the family reached a $1.9 million settlement with Waller County and the Texas Department of Public Safety, along with changes to jail procedures.

Sandra Bland had moved from Illinois to Texas to begin a new job at Prairie View A&M University.

Instead, a routine traffic stop became the final chapter of her life.

Her name was Sandra Bland.
